That game was going to end in Scotland from the minute that the parliamentary Dalmeny-Linlithgow service was passed up (Invergowrie, Alloa and Wick were the other possibilities from Inverness).
Are summer-only services valid? The legs in Scotland have all skipped the summer-only stations (Dunrobin Castle, Falls of Cruachan)...
Not true. Coulda gone down from Inverness via Perth and Stirling to Glasgow QS, then navigated round the Argyle/North Clyde lines to Central, then gotten out via the WCML.
Yes I noticed that, but in order for that to happen, we would have had to, between us, pass up two very clear-cut winning chances before we even got to Glasgow!
Back to the current leg - Brondesbury.
